Hollywood star Chris Hemsworth is known worldwide for bringing the mighty Thor to life in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), but a recent interview shows even superheroes struggle with teenage drama at home.

His funny, candid story gives fans a heartfelt behind-the-scenes look at balancing family life with one of the biggest film franchises on the planet.

The Humorous Side of Filmmaking: Bribing India on Set
While Hemsworth's career has been filled with otherworldly battles and universe-saving missions, his recent interview on The View revealed a much more grounded challenge: getting his daughter India to commit to her scenes in 'Avengers: Doomsday.' Some typical teenage emotions resulted from the 13-year-old's initial disinterest in being on set. She is reprising her role as Love, a character Thor assumed during the events of 'Love and Thunder.'
Shortly after filming started, she reportedly asked her father, "How long is this gonna take?" and even wanted to know, "Are we done?" Hemsworth joked that India's attitude, which he described as typical teenage angst, meant he had to creatively bribe her to stay committed to the shoot.

In order to persuade her to keep going, he reminded her that she was getting paid and even made a suggestion that the money might be used to purchase a motorcycle. The humorous tale provided a unique, realistic look into Hollywood family life, proving that even megastars like Hemsworth can deal with backseat arguments and adolescent priorities like going to a concert. Behind the humour, Hemsworth stressed that India wasn't throwing a tantrum, but that working with a teenager requires patience, understanding, and sometimes a little extra incentive.
Adding a human touch to the epic universe of interstellar conflicts and superhero team-ups, 'Avengers: Doomsday' is set to be one of the year's greatest blockbusters.
